What They're Looking For:
- Bachelor's in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, IT, or equivalent hands-on experience
- Foundational understanding of incident response, threat detection, and operating systems
- Familiarity with SIEM, EDR, DLP, or antivirus concepts
- Strong analytical chops and attention to detail
- Genuine enthusiasm for automating security operations
Nice to Have:
- Exposure to Azure or cloud/SaaS environments
- Basic scripting (Python, PowerShell, or Bash)
- Entry-level certs like Security+ or Associate of (ISC)²
This is the kind of role where you'll build a real foundation—inside a firm that's been building businesses for nearly 50 years.
